When “The 60 Yard Line” touches down in local theaters this week, Green Bay Packers fans get their long-awaited chance to see how they look — and Titletown, too — on the big screen.

Filmed in Green Bay and set against the backdrop of game-day tailgating, the feature-length comedy about football super fandom tackles what happens when diehard Packers fan Ben “Zagger” Zagowski decides to use his wedding fund money to buy a house next to Lambeau so he can party on game days.

Audiences are sure to see a face or two they know in the film, which tapped everyone from Packers fans (and a few Vikings fans) to former Packers players John Kuhn, Mark Tauscher and Ahman Green to local TV personalities Tom Zalaski and Burke Griffin for a homegrown film that became a team effort.

Beloit native Ryan Churchill, who plays Zagger, co-wrote and co-produced the independent project with fellow Los Angeles actor Nick Greco, who stars as his best buddy, Nick Polano, a Chicago Bears fan. We sat down with the two of them to come up with a cheat sheet — don’t worry, no spoilers — of fun things to look for when you put your Packers jersey on and grab your popcorn.

1. Surprise! The mayor’s on his way. Upon arriving in town for filming in 2015, Churchill and Greco got word that Green Bay Mayor Jim Schmitt wanted to see them. Their first thought: “He’s going to shut us down before we start shooting,” Greco said. It turned out he wanted to offer any help he could. When he mentioned he’s done a little acting himself, they decided to write him into the movie. They hadn’t done that yet, however, when they got an email from his assistant one night saying the mayor would be getting out of a meeting shortly and was coming over.

“We were behind that day a little bit, but we were like, 'We can’t pass this up. We can’t say no to the mayor,”’ Churchill said.

So he, Greco, director Leif Gantvoort and producer Alex McCollough scrambled to come up with something. It’s a quick scene that was done in just two takes. It’s one of their favorites.

“Just his performance ... it’s perfect,” Church said.

“He was a natural. Very funny,” Greco said.

2. Is it Green Bay or is it L.A.? The house at the corner of Oneida Street and Stadium Drive in Ashwaubenon, affectionately known as The 60, is the primary filming location. The shipping company Zagger works at was shot on several floors of the Green Bay Press-Gazette building. When he goes for a job interview later in the film, those scenes are at an office building next to Churchill’s house in Los Angeles. The Green Bay welding shop Zagger’s parents own was also shot in Los Angeles, as was the garage scene (in Gantvoort’s garage).

3. So a cow walks into a house ... The cast includes an 1,800-pound Holstein from Ebert Enterprises in Algoma who answered the call for a cow that could fit through the front door of The 60.

“The scene with the cow was a hectic day and somehow it slipped my mind that I had a big monologue in that scene, like me regurgitating the Vince Lombardi stuff,” Churchill said. “We got the cow in there, we got me in there, we got it lit and we were ready to go. Action! I was like, ‘Do I have lines in this scene?’ Leif looks at me and he’s like, ‘Are you serious?’ I had no idea that I even had lines in that scene. He hands me my scene, and it’s literally a full page of dialogue that I had to kind of memorize immediately, because we have a cow standing in the living room.”

4. Cold beer here! It’s a film in which game-day partying is prominent, so, yep, there’s beer involved. You’ll notice a lot of Titletown Brewing Co. bottles in particular. The local brewery was especially generous with providing beer.

“We walked out one day and they had put cases upon cases of beer in the garage at The 60, so we definitely took advantage of that,” Churchill said.

Screen Actors Guild regulations, however, prohibit drinking on set, so tea or water had to be used when cameras were rolling. As for after hours, well ...

5. Ya hey, check out that accent. Kim Crossman, who plays Zagger’s fiancee, Amy, is from New Zealand, so speaking like a Wisconsinite wasn’t exactly second nature. It was the film’s Wisconsin-based makeup artist and stylist Dana Michele who taught her how to talk like a local.

“I don’t think Kim even started trying it until she landed here,” Greco said. “She’s a very quick learner when it comes to accents.”

6. Proof Mother Nature is a Packers fan, Take 1. The majority of filming in Green Bay was done in the fall of 2015, but cast and crew returned in 2016 for several scenes that required snow. Their timing proved impeccable.

“The day after we wrapped, I think it rained that night, and then we wake up the next morning and all the snow is gone,” Greco said. “Oh my God, if we had pushed it by a day we would’ve been out of luck — and out of money.”

(Look carefully at the scene where Zagger is in the kitchen putting beer bottles in the garbage and you can see it raining out the kitchen window.)

7. Proof Mother Nature is a Packers fan, Take 2. One of the most hectic filming days involved a big game-day tailgating scene in the front yard of The 60, with cars parking on the grass and a motorized picnic table. Four minutes after they got the final shot, it started to rain.

It was a raw fall day that required Churchill to be shirtless and in his boxers for most of it. In between takes, he says, “I would take one of those big, brown furry blankets and go over to the heat register and just make an igloo and sit in it while the heat blew on me.”

8. Keep an eye out for the guy in the garage. One of Churchill and Greco’s favorite scenes — and one that generated big laughs at the world premiere at the Wisconsin Film Festival — involves a character named Trapper. He’s played by Randall Park, who may be recognizable as Danny Chung on “Veep,” Kim Jong-Un in “The Interview” and Louis Huang on “Fresh Off the Boat.” Without giving away details, it’s a very funny scene.

“It feels like the one moment that gets a little silly, but in a good way,” Greco said. “It kind of breaks it up a bit.”

9. Meet the parents. The couple who play Nick Polano’s parents at the end of the movie are Churchill’s real-life parents from Beloit. “Parent swap,” Greco said.

10. Digging deep for a few tears. One of Churchill’s toughest scenes was the one in which he breaks up with his fiancee and has to run out on the front lawn and get emotional.

“At times, I can be an emotional guy, but it’s very difficult to do that and make it real over and over and over again, because we were just having so much fun,” he said. “Now you’ve got to go out and get serious and try and hold back tears, but kind of let a few out, but make it real.”

11. Who needs a script anyway? There’s a breakup sequence that shows how the guys are dealing with the news versus how the girls are. There were scripted lines for the scene with Churchill and Greco at the kitchen table, but the two friends who have known each other since 2006 when they did sketch comedy together used only 10 percent of them.

“That was the last scene we shot, and I remember a lot of that as just natural laughter from us,” Greco said. “It was just us two improvising and making each other laugh.”

12. He really does like da Bears. Greco is a Bears fan on camera and off. He grew up in Naperville, Ill., and Rochester, N.Y. He spent his formative sports years in the former. “I grew up knowing only the Cubs, Bears and Bulls.”

13. Packers fans get a voice — and a voice. The interviews with real-life Packers fans interspersed throughout the film weren’t originally part of the script. They were added later, along with that familiar deep voice who narrates.

“We love the NFL Films, and that’s kind of what we were inspired by with the style. Hence, you get Earl Mann, voice-over actor who is an NFL Films guy, narrating it,” Greco said. “We wanted that kind of documentary feel to it along with the scripted story, so we got regular, real fans to give their little insight of why they like the Packers, what it’s like living in Green Bay, to help move our story along.”

14. Backyard tree trickery. Even on a limited budget, “The 60” managed to pull off a little movie magic. Scenes in the backyard of the house looking toward Lambeau Field were actually shot in the next-door neighbor’s backyard, because “a huge, monstrous tree” at The 60 house blocks the view of the stadium, Churchill said. Gantvoort cut down one tree before shooting started but wasn’t about to tackle the bigger one.

“So if you’re looking toward the stadium in a shot, you’re in the neighbor’s yard. Then when you turn back around, we’re back in the real 60,” Churchill said.

15. Stick around for the end credits. Churchill and Greco challenge moviegoers to see if they can name who does the voice-over for the Lambrew beer commercial that pops up. Here’s your hint: “It’s a famous person.” A famous person who also happens to be a big Packers fan. Sorry, that’s all you get.
